This hill passed the Semite but. died in the Mouse, because of the opposi tion of the Cannon organization. Combines Until Plan. That commission, If created, would have been the means of bringing Into cummltalloh the leading members of the two branches of Congress and the executive branch of the Govern ment, and would, In fact, have estab liKhed a budget system of supervising 'iovernment estimates, appropria tions and expenditures. President Tuft's idea of a budget Is that the control should be In the hands of the administrative depart ment. Senator Hourne'B Idea was, and Is, that Blnce the constitution makes Congress the legislative branch and empowers it to enact legislation raising revenues and mak ing appropriations, the committee having supervision of the budget should be composed of members of the two houses of Congress. The com mltteo. however, reported a bill com bining the two Ideas, but giving the two bouses of Congress six members and the executive branrh three. After Bpendlng the entire summer In the study of this (ineslion. Senator Hourne addressed the Senate In be half of the committee bill and assert ed, umong other things, that this sub ject was one of the most Important before Congress. Its Importance wnfi not then realized by a very large number of members,. although Signa ler Aldrlch made the assertion that the adoption of such a method of supervising Government methods and expenditures could be made to save the Government $:0. 000,000 an nually. Senator lioiline's estimate wait Hint from J 100,000,000 to $200, 000,000 could be saved. i:,'!ov Cost Christmas dishes, see the window nt the Benson Gro cery, ot course. uu 'pi., n,.Ui.)nirir Ttnnk Store are local distributors for Wuterman's ideal Fountain Pens.

Among twenty clerks employed by a New york importing buuHe It whs no eawy matter for one to attract tut attention of the manager. And It wan not with any such Idea, in fact, that young Haven kept his desk and the pa pern in bin care In the must neat and careful order. He did It Just because hu had u systematic mind and liked things In place. lie wiih always nblo at a moment notice to put his hand ou anything he needed. Ho when the manager hap pened to need a certain price list, copies of which bad been given not only to Caven. but to every one of the other nineteen clerks. It was Oaveu niio placed his hand on hla copy while the others were Just beginning to won der where they had put theirs. There was no comment on that, but a few days later when the mnnagcr itgniti needed certain papers Cnven found them first. "Aren't you the man who gave me that price list on Monday?" asked the manager. "Yes!" "Well, my private secretary lms Just been promoted, and I need a new one. ft man who will know where to find tilings. Would you like the place?" There was only one answer to that. That was how Javen got his first step. New York World. THE TINY HUMMING BIRD. "FRUZE'A'JW"'B'tutBCr" Thtn Broke It In Piec. and Flo-ted Them on Liqui.i r. A frozen simp bubble broken lu two nnd floating like un Iridescent, trans parent eggHhell on ttio surfuce of a i vessel ot liquid air wns one of tlie j marvels ejlilbltcd by Professor Dewnr Id a lecture before tlie Koyul Institute of Great Krltiiln. j Tlie lecture wus upon tlie subject of atmosphere and the curious effects of Intense cold, tlie liquid air and soap I bubble being adjuncts introduced to fu- ' cltltnte some explanations. A few sKonfuls of liquid air were poured Into a vessel, nud the Intense cold caused by evaporation immediate ly brought on a mlnature snowstorm In tho atmosphere directly above the vessel. A soap bubble wns then placed In the freezluR stratum. Almost in stantly there was a change In tlie color of the transparent globe, the bubble becoming: much dnrker: the move ments of the ruinbows film grew slow er; it contracted somewhat In size, and a little Inter It fro.e. A slight but dexterous movement of the roil upon which tlie bubble wns suspended broke the latter Into two pieces, which fell upon the liquid air and there floated for an hour, gradual ly nceiimiilntlng a tiny snowdrift from the almost imperceptible precipitation constantly going on In the freezing atmosphere nliove. mi w r 'w whose subscription ($2.00) Is paid for 1913. a beautiful souvenir. This year It takes the unique form of a Window Transparency, to be hung in the window or in front of a lighted lamp. Through it the light shines as through the strained glass of a cathedral window, softly Illuminating the design a figure of Autumn laden with fruits; and all around, wreathed in purple clusters of grapes and green foliage, is the circle of the months. It Ib the most attractive gift ever sent to Companion readers. In One Species Its Bill Is Nearly as Long as Its Body. All humming birds, though varying much In size and color, exhibit the same form of wing, legs and feet, the wings being strong (considering the small size of the bird), while the legs and feet are remarkably weak and del icate, n clear indication that these lit tle creatures are intended to spend al most all their time In the air. In accordance with this we find that humming birds are never Been on the ( ground; that even when feeding they seldom troublo themselves to alight, but suspend themselves lu the nlr be fore the tlower on whose Juices they menu to feed, the rapid vibration of tlie whips causing them to appear like two fans of filmy gauze and producing at the same (line that peculiar hum ming sound from which these birds derive their popular name. The heak of most humming birds is long, delicate and slightly curved to ennblc it to reach the inmost recessei of the trumpet shaped llowers which abound in the tropical regions, but the shape of the beak Is very variable, probably on account of tlio particular tlower on which the bird feeds. lu s'Miie Instances It is nearly stralgti and in one species, the sword bill hum ming bird, ft Is very nearly ns long as the rest of the body.
